Koroška Bela (RC Kres) - Gank

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Lipce (Jesenice East) and turn right towards Jesenice. At the first traffic lights (Slovenski Javornik) turn right towards Lj. Followed by a second traffic-lighted junction, turn left and go under the railway underpass, and at the next smaller junction turn right towards Koroška Bela. Go past the last bus stop (the shop on the left) into the village. Look for the crossroads in the centre of the village, where there is a church memorial. From here, follow the main road through the village, which leads uphill to the north. After about 100 m, you will see a bridge on the right, but go straight on for another 50 m, where you will come to a left fork in the road. Take this road, cross another (Koroška) street and continue uphill (the church is lower on the left) until you reach a space outside the village where you come across the abandoned tennis courts (RC Kres).

Path description:
At the first chestnut tree on the roadside (about 50 m from the village), on the right, you can see the forest logging trail, which measures back towards the east. Follow it for a short distance to a left fork, initially a logging trail-like path, which climbs steeply up the slope. Soon the path narrows into a track which climbs up the eastern slope of the hill in a few switchbacks. Shortly, an improvised bench is encountered and the path continues north-eastwards. Higher up, the path dips a little, and after a while leads to a fork, where you turn left uphill, along the slope (the right-hand path descends a little). After a few steps, you reach a steep grassy slope on your left. Leave the path here and head slightly left up this rather steep grassy slope, where you first climb up for some 10 m, and then cross the hill to the left, to a wooded part, which you cross all the way to the southern edge, from where you can look down into the valley. Here, turn towards the top on the right and climb the steep ridge to the finish in a few minutes.
